Happy Birthday Hunter {Idaho Falls Child Photographer}So we got to spend some time with Hunter again and I have to say, the time flies by and they grow way too fast! ONE year old already? It was like a few months ago that we were getting 6 months photos of him.. His mama brought in the cutest banner and his adorable little western wear and I borrowed this adorable rocking horse from our good friend Amanda, (Thanks Amanda, it really was perfect for the shoot!). Hunter loved having his GeeGee help at the shoot. Smiles galore! Thanks Crystal & Glenda for coming it! It really was fun and I look forward to watching this little guy grow!
Alicia, Jeff, Mckenzy & Maddy {Idaho Falls Family Photographer}Fall is such a busy time of the year for photographers. Beautiful colors, getting picture for the Christmas cards, and beating the snow. I have to say, adorable family and beautiful girls right here! We had some fun even if we did have to relocate twice due to overcrowding at some prime locations.
~Winter Wonderland~ Heather, Rudy & the Kids {Idaho Falls Family Photographer}I had just spent a great weekend in beautiful Island Park and just loved the way the trees looked as the snow clung to them and thought, "Man, wouldn't it be fun to do a family session in the woods up here?" when Heather messaged me for winter family pictures. I kind of joked about it with her and before we knew it, we had a plan. So, the day we planned to drive the hour trip one way to our location, our humble little town was looking a bit frightful. We had snow and wind and no sure way to know what the weather would be like in Island Park. Weather reports showed us to be in the clear a little so we trudged on. IT WAS PERFECT. Not too cold, which was nice for our little ones. So, I get to the location I want to shoot at, jump out of the truck, step in the snow and SINK all the way up to my thighs in the snow. My hubby, who came with me, was such a gem and packed down a little trail to where everyone would stand for the shot. He is a keeper folks! It is always fun shooting with this family! I am glad they have come into my life.
Ty is 6 months old {Idaho Falls Child Photographer}Yep, slacking again. Time to play some massive catch. I may be working a little backwards here till I get caught up, but we will get them up. First up is a session I just finished up today. This little handsome devils' mom and I go back a little over 11 years now. We worked in the same office and became great friends. I got to meet Ty here at 2 weeks old for his newborn session and instantly fell in love with the adorable little guy with his FULL head of red hair! We did his newborn session on their property, which is amazing. Nikki and Daren have let me do many a shoots at their place since the newborn session and as a way to repay them for letting me and my clients traipse all over their yard, I finally convinced Nikki that I needed to do a watch me grow for him. (I am sure there will be some times this year that I will be out at their place some more.)
Fast forward to now, 6 months old and he just keeps getting cuter and cuter!!! He was so happy for his session too! Tell me he doesn't just make you smile!
Austin & Taylor {Idaho Falls Engagement Photographer}Taylor is one prepared gal! Austin proposed and she was in contact with me just a few days later. Taylor wanted fall engagement photos, and with a winter wedding and fall coming to an end, she knew that our window was closing soon for those fall colors. We were able to schedule the session for the upcoming weekend, and as I was approaching the area that we were doing their shoot, there was some praying going on. "Please tell me there are colors still, please be some color somewhere!" From the outside of the wooded area we were going to shoot in, all you saw were brown, icky and BARE trees. Yet, not even a mile back down the the road, beautiful gold and reds (so I knew I was going to be okay even if we had to adjust).
Oh there were some very pretty colors! The session was a dream. I had my very good looking couple, the weather was mildly windy, it was still warm, it was going to be great!
AND IT WAS!
I loved to hear that Taylor and Austin BOTH ride dirt bikes. Even a little competitive in their brands and riding! We had a blast during the session. I loved meeting these two and wish them the best wishes as they join hands and hearts in marriage this winter. Congrats to you Taylor and Austin! Thank you for allowing me to be apart of this wonderful moment in your lives!
